A hot lunch today. A full classroom tomorrow.
For many children in rural Mozambique, a MSLI school lunch is the most reliable meal of their day, and the reason they show up to learn. Your gift keeps that meal on the table, every school day.

Can I change or cancel my monthly gift?
Yes, at any time, in the Donor Portal.
- Sign in. Every receipt email has a Go to Donor Portal button. You can also open our Donor Portal and enter your email address: there is no password, and you are sent a one-time sign-in link.
- Change it. Open your monthly gift with View details, then choose Edit to change the amount, how often you give, the next payment date or your payment method.
- Cancel it. Choose Cancel recurring donation. You may be offered the option to skip a few payments instead; choose Just cancel my donation to confirm, and a confirmation email follows. You can restart a canceled gift from the portal later.
If anything gets in the way, write to partner@mozambiqueschoollunchinitiative.org and we'll sort it out.
